Built Stories

Each project we've delivered has its own personality, challenges we wrestled with, and those satisfying moments when everything just clicks into place. Here's what we've been building.

Residential Design

Lakeshore Passive House

This one's close to our hearts. The clients wanted net-zero energy consumption without sacrificing the open, airy feel they loved. Took us months to nail the orientation and envelope details, but man, seeing those energy bills basically flatline made it worth every late-night calculation.

Commercial Architecture

Junction Innovation Hub

Converting an old warehouse into a tech workspace sounds straightforward till you're dealing with heritage restrictions and trying to fit modern HVAC into 1920s bones. We kept the character everyone loved while sneaking in geothermal heating and a rooftop solar array that actually works with the building's aesthetic.

Yorkville Penthouse Renovation

When you've got floor-to-ceiling views but the layout's fighting against them, something's gotta give. We basically reimagined the entire flow, dropped a couple non-structural walls, and created these sightlines that pull your eye straight through to the skyline. The lighting design alone took three revisions, but now it transitions beautifully from day to night.

Sustainable Building

Riverdale Community Centre

Public spaces that actually work for everyone aren't easy - accessibility, durability, and staying under budget while hitting green targets? That's the puzzle we solved here with cross-laminated timber and smart daylighting strategies.

Residential Design

Leslieville Laneway Homes

Four laneway houses on tight urban lots - maximizing space without making them feel cramped was the challenge. Skylights, double-height spaces, and clever storage solutions made these compact homes feel surprisingly generous.

Commercial Architecture

Distillery District Boutique Hotel

Historic district, modern hospitality standards - yeah, that was interesting. We threaded the needle between heritage preservation and contemporary comfort. The exposed brick stays, but so does the radiant floor heating. Original timber beams meet LED strips that don't scream "look at me, I'm modern!"
